On one of these trips he had Daniel Webster for a fellow traveler. His experience in tho south and the crude clement he bad to educate and instruct in the way of business and department service would make an interesting chapter. ———— LIQUOR THE CAUSE. ‘The Reply Made by the Majority of Judge ‘Kimball's Visitors Today. “What was the condition of this man?” was the question asked by Judge Kimball of a num- ber of policemen today, and in most cases the response was, “He was intoxicated.” Liquor was the cause of the most of the trouble, and a majority of those in trouble were locked up Saturday night.

Lusk’s Recommendation In Regard to ‘Two Water Mains Approved. On tho 18th day of last December the largo water main along the quarry road, which was laid to supply the Zoological Park with water, was completed. The question at once arose, Was the cost of this main to be assessed against Ld abutting property, and if so, could it be tappod | Tay It Ovxoz, for domestic purposes the sameas the ordinary District rains? The same question arose con- cerning the Kentucky avenne mains laid by the District to supply Anncostia with Potomac water. In disposing of these vexed questions Capt. Lusk says: “The water maim on quarry road was laid upon the application of the au- thorities of the National Zoological Park, and, with the exception of one fire plug, was paid for from the appropriation for the said Zoolog- ical Park. It was not laid in the interest of the public gafety, comfort and health, and in my opinion cannot be legally ussessed at this time. I therefore recommend that the water main be charged with each tap taken out upon the line of this main. The line from East Capitol street and 11th street east, by way of Kentucky ave- nue and the new Pennsylvania avenue bridge, is composed of 20 and 16-inch mains. Water mains above 12 inches sre not allowed to be tapped except upon aspecial order of the Engi- neer Commissioner. { therefore believe that this main is also uot legally assessable against abutting property. The latter must eventuall: be supplied by small service mains Jaid on eac! side of the streets and avenue concerned.” ‘This recommendation has received the ap- Proval of the Commissioners. ee ALEXANDRIA, PASTORAL CHANGE.
